Diddy’s legal team has vehemently defended him against a series of lawsuits filed by Texas attorney Tony Buzbee, who claims to represent 120 alleged victims of the music mogul. The Bad Boy Records founder's attorneys characterized Buzbee as a lawyer seeking publicity, asserting that his actions are motivated by a desire for attention.
In a recent statement, Diddy's attorneys remarked, “The press conference and 1-800 number that preceded today’s barrage of filings were clear attempts to garner publicity.” They emphasized that in court, the truth will emerge, stating, “Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone—adult or minor, man or woman.”
Earlier on Monday, Buzbee filed six lawsuits against Diddy, each alleging sexual assault. Among the accusers are four men, one of whom claims he was just 16 years old when Diddy allegedly fondled him at a White Party in the Hamptons.
Buzbee has indicated that more lawsuits are expected in the near future and has hinted at the possibility of pursuing legal action against other celebrities, though no such actions have been confirmed as of yet.
Diddy is currently awaiting trial in a federal criminal case in New York, where he has consistently maintained his innocence.
